This is the moment a poor elephant needed some help after it got stuck in a pond.
Concerned witnesses immediately called wildlife officials after four elephants fell into the pond.
Here’s out the full video of the amazing encounter:
But when the officials arrived, just one elephant was left in the pond and was struggling to get out.
Thankfully, one of the officials had an idea to break part of the wall and let some of the water out.
After the elephant got out, it kept looking back at us at its rescuers as if it was expressing its gratitude to the people that saved its life.
It gazed at them for a full two minutes before eventually leaving and going back into its habitat.
This all happened in China, where only 300 Asian elephants remain in the wild. Asian elephants are endangered, and therefore this rescue was essential.
